Battlestar touched on a lot of themes and issues that many other shows wouldn't go near back when it was airing.

w/o giving anything away season 3 episode 2 was a pretty interesting take on how a long war changes what otherwise good people find morally acceptable.

I was holding off on the Blu-Ray because it's been on Netflix forever. Looks like I have to bite for christmas.

Amazon had an incredible sale on those a couple of weeks ago. Pulled the trigger and ended up spending a little under $80.

I'm on my third watch through right now. This show is addictive. If OP hasn't watched 33 yet, prepare to be blown away.

Great Show


It's the greatest of the modern sci-fi movement for sure.

And it hit so many issues, social, cultural, and political, across a wide spectrum. Better than many a show.

But it isn't the greatest of all-time.

For sci fi I have a hard time not putting it No. 1, although STTNG is definitely fighting for 1st or 2nd as well

I'm the biggest BSG proponent on here, but even I have my limits. I'd throw dramas like the Wire and maybe Boardwalk ahead of it. Sci-Fis like TNG and X-Files and Twilight Zone are probably better overall. BSG's impact on TV has sadly been minimal, which impacts its legacy.
